Gas Shipping - Gaining Traction Amid Recovery in Oil Prices

The rebound in crude oil and gas prices brought some solace to shareholders of gas shipping companies as stocks of LNG and LPG operators started trending up. Nonetheless, investors have been discreet while backing a company. Since the start of the year, Gaslog in the LNG shipping and StealthGas among the LPG ship operators have yielded handsome returns. We believe attractive valuation was one of the driving factor, which led investors to bottom fishing.

  • LPG shipping – US ethylene plants to aid handysize vessels
  • LPG shipping – downside capped in coaster segment
  • LNG shipping remains subdued, but will improve from 2018
  • Chinese effect – gaining prominence in gas shipping,
  • China natural gas demand to show steady rise
  • China needs additional LNG to meet its growing natural gas demand
  • Chinese effect – New shipping capacity required for growing imports
  • Chinese LPG consumption is also expected to increase
